Carbon date issue

[KiXX]

I have been following the documentation to add the Support Hours to the site.

 

IT all works great except for it ignoring the time.

It will show a different message at the weekend, but it's not changing at 5 o clock, the code is below:

 

        $now = Carbon::now();
       $supportIsOpen = $now->isWeekday()
           && $now->hour >= 8
           && $now->hour <= 17;

 

Any help would be appreciated.

I did some research on this since I was having the same issue and I found that by putting in 'America/Vancouver' fixed it for me since I am on the West Coast USA

$now = Carbon::now('America/Vancouver');
